Скачать или смотреть Deshmukh Divya vs Tan Zhongyi at Women's World Cup 2025 on July 23, 2025

Ladies and gentlemen, gather ’round for a fantastic recount of one of the most electrifying chess battles at the Women's World Cup 2025 in Batumi, Georgia! On July 23rd, the fiery Deshmukh Divya from India went head-to-head with the legendary Chinese Grandmaster Tan Zhongyi in a game packed with twists, tactical fireworks, and nerve-shredding moments that kept everyone glued to their seats.

It all kicked off with a spicy Sicilian Defense—Alapin Variation—setting the tone for an aggressive clash. Early exchanges led to chaos, with pawns flying and sharp sacrifices. At move 13, Divya gained a decisive edge, and the game swung wildly with advantage jumps that even the strongest engines couldn’t predict. A daring knight sacrifice by Zhongyi on move 14 sparked drama, but White’s queen quickly snatched the moment with a brilliant capture on c1.

As the game heated up, White's pieces worked together like a well-oiled machine—destruction on d5, fierce queen and bishop coordination, and sharp attacks on Black’s king. The fireworks reached their peak around moves 32 to 36, with White exploiting Black’s vulnerabilities in a dazzling sequence of captures and checks. The edge grew even sharper when White’s rook checks at moves 63 and 64 pushed Black’s king into a corner.

Then came move 92, a masterstroke from Divya—shifting her king to c6, sealing Black’s fate. Her relentless rook checks – culminating in a pawn promotion at move 98 – were electrifying and nearly brought the house down. Black’s critical error at move 59 allowed White to seize total control, leading to a forced resignation after White’s decisive pawn promotion on move 97.

This game, ending 1-0 in White’s favor, showcases Divya’s daring attacking style and impeccable timing, especially her unforgettable move 92. It’s a reminder that in chess, boldness and sharp calculation can turn the tide in an instant.
